In all honestly I liked to use the array, it looked allot cleaner & an more
friendly. I was looking through the Vision source code, and I believe it
used arrays, was very well done, and looked pretty simple. However my
knowledge with arrays is rough at best, and I couldn't quit seem to grasp
how to make it work with ASCII pfiles, It keep complaining about me using
AFF_FLAGS(ch) = PFILE_AFF_FLAGGED (Something to that affect).
Also with OLC installed it complained about it as well, but I believe I was
able to cook something up that made it work, Can't really remember its been
a week or so and I have slept since then.. :p
Have you used this method with having acsii pfiles? If so, how did you over
come the above?
Thanks,
Dave (Tiznor)
